Sponsored Children
The waiting list of children who are waiting for a sponsorship is very long. Generally, the cxhildren are already schooling with one of our schools, so their talent and worthiness for a sponsorship had already been verified. The economic situation of a sponsored family is monitored on a regular basis to make sure sponsoring is still rectified.
The co-ordination of sponsorships is handled by the charitable society Watoto e.V. in Baunatal, Germany ("watoto" is the Kiswahili word for children). The society transfers sponsor funds to the school at the beginning of each term and establishes regular communication between the children and their sponsors. A membership within the society is not required a sponsorship.
The society works without cost or expenditure refund. Expenses such as for material, administration, travel, petty expenses, postage and telephone etc. are all paid for privately by the member of the organisation. This homepage for instance was made available to the society free of charge. Watoto e.V. has been registered under the number 2968 in the German society registry and is eligible for tax exempt as a charity organisation by German tax authorities.
Mwanarusi is only one of many children hoping for support. If you should consider sponsoring this child, or if you are interested in supporting a different child and would like to obtain further information about a sponsorship please do not hesitate to call us on (+49) 05601-89337 or send an email via this link.
